Built to replace a standard switch
The TL-6012-PLUS is a wall mounted sensor designed to drop into the same spot as an ordinary light or fan switch. It measures 4.06" H x 1.68" W x 1.90" D and weighs only 5 oz, so it fits the footprint electricians and renovators already know. The recommended mounting height is 30" to 48", which puts the lens at the right angle to read movement across the room instead of staring at the floor. An integrated LED indicator confirms detection and an ON/OFF button keeps manual override available, so nobody is ever stuck waiting for the sensor to make up its mind.
PIR detection and three operation modes
The sensor uses PIR (passive infrared) technology: it reacts to motion from a heat-emitting source and switches the load On or Off accordingly. Three modes cover every scenario — OFF, OCC and VAC. In OCC mode the lights come on automatically and go off automatically once the space is empty. In VAC mode they turn off automatically but must be turned on manually, which is often what energy codes and picky clients prefer. Coverage is 180° over 600 sq.ft., sensitivity is adjustable, and light harvesting lets the sensor take available daylight into account instead of lighting a room the sun has already handled.
Electrical and installation details
The TL-6012-PLUS is a single pole device rated 120/277 VAC, 50-60 Hz, with a load capacity of 300W LED. A hot wire and a ground are required; it works with or without a neutral wire, which is a real advantage in older Canadian homes and retrofit jobs where no neutral was ever pulled to the switch box. Proper grounding is not optional: the spec sheet states clearly that the sensor must be properly grounded for correct operation and that improper grounding will result in malfunction. Operating temperature runs from 0° to 55° C, and the case quantity is 50 pcs for contractors buying by the box.

Applications and documentation
The spec sheet lists warehouses, manufacturing plants, gymnasiums and storage rooms as target applications — spaces where lights routinely stay on long after the last person leaves. Picture a 600 sq.ft. parts room where the occupancy sensor kills the lights minutes after the shelf is restocked, a gym corridor lit only when someone walks through, or a home garage where hands full of groceries no longer means fumbling for a switch. With a 300W LED load on a single pole circuit, one device can control a group of high bay or linear LED fixtures at once. The complete TL-6012-PLUS spec sheet is available as a PDF in the Documentation tab, with detection patterns, dimensions and wiring notes for your electrician.
